Saucy Santana Lawsuit Dangling After $25K Concert No-Show He Denies Accusal ... Wanted To Salvage Event

UPDATE

6:21 PM PT -- Saucy Santana’s team tells TMZ Hip Hop that One Memphis’ account of the event is completely fabricated and claim they have receipts of their own!!!

UPDATE

The rapper’s team denies he was ever paid the full amount … insisting he just got half of the deposit before the show.

UPDATE

Saucy says after he missed his flight, he offered to still come –— and he insists to OMOV obliged and promised to extend the event or even have him perform at an after-party for a rate lower than what Saucy says he’s used to.

UPDATE

Saucy’s team says those plans fell through for some reason and OMOV then attempted to paint him as the bad guy.

UPDATE

As for his rider, we’re told Saucy’s team informed OMOV they didn’t need everything on the list — just the liquor, hookah, and chicken to pack up and eat for later, and Saucy also denies his team used the vehicle all day just to cruise around town.

UPDATE

Jerry, the owner of the rental vehicle provided for Saucy’s team, also says OMOV still hasn’t paid him … the messiness just keeps piling up.

UPDATE

We’ll just have to see how this plays out if it ever ends up in a courtroom.

Saucy Santana being a no-show for his Memphis Pride event is potentially about to cost him a bundle -- the event organizers are demanding the money they already paid.

A rep for One Memphis One Vision tells TMZ Hip Hop they paid "Material Girl" rapper half the $25K advance of the performance for this past weekend -- but, in light of his absence, they want all of it back ... even if that means installments.

So far, the company says Saucy hasn't ponied up a cent.

We're told they booked Saucy, and he even helped promote the event on IG -- but then he missed the performance ... apparently, due to a flight delay.

OMOV tells us it shelled out thousands on a personal vehicle -- because Saucy refused to use Uber Black -- which Saucy's team paraded around in all day, despite his absence.

The rep thinks Saucy has no respect for their nonprofit, which advocates for youth battling HIV/AIDS ... and they even griped about his fancy schmancy tour rider!!!

Saucy's tour rider didn't win him any friends either -- we're told his list of needs includes several bottles of tequila, cans of Red Bull, and boxes of chicken. OMOV says it provided all of the above, and it wasn't cheap.

The organizers say the sole purpose of the event was to get people tested, and while fans flocked to the doors ... OMOV says they dipped out once they realized Saucy was a no-show.

OMOV says it's prepared to file a lawsuit this week if they don't get a refund.

We reached out to Saucy's team, but mum's the word so far.

A previous update of the story indicated Saucy's team received the full $25K when it was actually half the amount; $14.5K.
